In late 2006, a fundraising initiative called the 500 Club was set in motion which encouraged veteran Saracen club members to donate $500 toward a potential future clubhouse. $8,500 was raised over two years of the program and the funds were left to grow as a part of a larger investment holding. Over time, the club had a need to use the funds in different ways and the original vision of a Saracen designated facility fell to the wayside.

The Order of the Green Crescent is a progression of the aforementioned program and aims to properly recognize past donations as well as to encourage future contributions to the Calgary Saracens RFC. This initiative introduces a progressive recognition system that will be accompanied by a corresponding rewards program.

A plaque to honour the contributors has been mounted at the Saracen clubhouse but the Saracen website will be the location where donors are tracked. We will recognize contributors at future Saracen events.

We would like to sincerely thank all those whose names grace the ranks of the Order of the Green Crescent and encourage other veteran members to follow in their righteous footsteps.
